Miko Brand Miso Soup 20 Piece Value Pack Pack-30% Less Sodium, 10.65 Ounce

I’m really impressed with this Miko Brand Miso Soup. I recently watched a bunch of videos about the health benefits of miso soup and I wanted to try it out. This is a very convenient, high-quality option that has worked well for me. I have had it several times with my breakfast, which is usually just a granola bar of some kind. I have also had it with my sandwich at lunch and it complements the flavors very well. And, I have found that it even works well as a snack at night to curve those late night cravings. Flavor: The taste is excellent and hits that perfect savory umami note you expect from a good miso soup. I love that it uses actual miso paste rather than just powder. I have tried both and this makes a huge difference in the richness of the broth. Value: This 20-piece pack is a fantastic deal. It is much more affordable than buying individual packets at the grocery store. Variety: The pack comes with an assortment of five different garnishes, which includes tofu, wakame, green onion, spinach, and fried bean curd. So, you don't get bored of the same flavor every day. Convenience: It’s incredibly easy to make. Just add hot water and it's ready in seconds, making it perfect for a quick lunch at work or a late-night snack. I would definitely buy this again. It’s shelf-stable, tasty, and a great value for the quantity you get.

I was looking for broth tea bags when I found this product. I make my own broth weekly and have been sipping on miso every a.m. since my first trip outside the us to Japan in 1996 when I saw it served with the breakfast buffet. That was when I learned about the benefits of miso, the nutrients and electrolytes it contains and decided to make it part of my daily routine. Then life happened, loss of electricity, change of homes, travel ect and the nice slow a.m. time for sipping miso was gone. One day I bought two of these bags of instant miso that also come with all the little sides, bags of seaweed, dried tofu, onions ect. WOW! I started taking them everywhere and now I can't live without at least one bag of these emergency healthy cup of miso products, I highly recommend them. Learning to sit and sip something healthy is a great time out, for your mind, your body and as they say, healthy dog mommy, healthy life! So, check it out...try it if you enjoy miso. It is not my favorite miso white mild or dark red miso, but it is a nice instant alternative. When I say stop everything, it's time for a cup of miso or broth...it is my time and that is nice. If you make it important, it will be one of those small happy habits that gets you through those days when you feel you just need a minute to gather your courage to take the next step into whatever disaster or happy challenge awaits you, without losing your cookies.

lived in Japan for many years, and this Miko Brand miso brings me right back to homemade Japanese flavors. It has a smooth texture and a rich, umami taste—perfect for making traditional miso soup, dressings, marinades, or even vegan recipes. I use it almost daily as a student because it’s easy to work with, lasts a long time, and gives any dish a truly authentic touch. I recommend keeping it sealed in the fridge to maintain freshness. A great choice if you want high-quality miso that tastes just like what you get in Japan.

At just over $1 each these are okay value for the money. As they are individually wrapped, these are easy to store and even easier to make - all you need is hot water something to stir it with. The soup taste is pretty good, honestly comparable to the miso soups that you'd order from a Japanese restaurant. In the addition to the soup you'll also find soft tofu, fried tofu (they call it fried bean curd), seaweed and green onion. However, only the seaweed and fried bean tofu pieces are satisfactory. The soft tofu is extremely salty - they must have soaked up all the salt from the freeze drying process, but it literally tastes like you are eating pure salt cubes. The green onion is not edible. The pieces are extremely tough and fibrous and I eat around them. Overall it's not bad, but I've had better freeze dried miso soups from our local Asian store here. If this is your first time buying freeze dried miso soup I would try from another vendor or something from your local store before ordering again.

Good product. Fast delivery. No problems.

I really love miso soup, so I was excited to try this freeze-dried version. The ingredients that I enjoy - green onion, tofu, and seaweed - are definitely present and taste authentic. The overall flavor is genuinely good and has that restaurant-like quality that makes it feel like a real meal rather than just instant soup. However, I have some mixed feelings about certain aspects. The beans and other additional ingredients just aren’t for me - they don’t add to the experience and actually detract from what I want in a miso soup. Personal preference, but I’d rather have a simpler version focused on the classic components. My biggest issue is with how the miso dissolves. Despite the good flavor, I find it dissolves poorly even with hot water, leaving some clumps or residue that affects the smooth texture you expect from quality miso soup. This is frustrating because the taste is there, but the preparation doesn’t quite deliver the restaurant-like experience it promises. The 0.27-ounce portions are definitely on the small side, though they are surprisingly filling for a light lunch or snack. It does serve as a perfect cold weather solution when you want something warm and comforting quickly. The ease of preparation is definitely convenient when you need something fast. The jury is really out on this product for me. I don’t hate it - the flavor is good and it does satisfy that miso craving. But between the dissolution issues and the ingredients I don’t care for, I probably won’t purchase it again. For the price point and portion size, I’d rather invest in a different brand or preparation method that gives me a smoother, more customizable miso experience.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Great variety of miso soups

It's good soup. Good price. I keep it in my desk at work
